Yes, you're right, the discount didn't show up when I looked at the "What's new" selection from Chanel, but it does show up when you click on the individual products. Not Mac though. Oh well, didn't want anything from Mac anyway.

Also this month's Glamour magazine has Benefit freebies, there's 3 of them, Bad Gal mascara, That Gal primer and Pore Professional (one only in each copy). I got two of them, the magazines are only £2 each and the samples are worth £10 and £15 each. (I didn't get the mascara.) My WH Smith had loads of them, but I would think they'll go quickly, especially the primers.

Primer sounds interesting and it is cheap. I feel UK magazines are stepping it up with the freebies these days. They used to be rubbish 99% of the time. I try to hit shops in areas where people wouldn't be interested in the magazine but it's hard to do that in London. I'm out today so I'll track the primer down.

I know it's a bit off topic, but I always feel like I'm among friends. Been tidying and cleaning most morning because we have a social worker visit this afternoon. Somebody reported my husband to the Police about 2 weeks ago, apparently he was hitting our son with a shoe at the swimming pool. He wasn't, all that happened was that my son was screaming because my husband wouldn't let him cross the car park on his own (very bad parenting I know) and then in the waiting area of the pool where you have to take your shoes off before you go into the changing rooms, our son threw his shoes around in anger, so my husband picked one up and shoved it back in his arm. I know it might have looked like he was screaming because of that, but some people obviously got the wrong idea and called the police, so an officer came out later that afternoon (I was out all day) and was apparently perfectly happy with my son being happy and healthy and said there would be no further inquiries. Then on Monday we got a letter from Social Services to say that they want to come and visit us regarding an incident of concern involving our son AND younger daughter (who was also at the pool, but was never part of the whole thing in the first place). Feel like shit, even though I haven't done anything, and neither has my husband for that matter.
I think people who don't have children don't realise how much children scream and play up, I tell my son to go and have his bath and he'll scream like I've just whacked him with a baseball bat. He's 5, nearly 6, and this is his way of rebelling. Ugh, so stressed about this right now.

I know how you feel, Anita (((hugs))). We also had someone report us to Social Services over something that didn't happen, when my little boy was about 3 years old. Whoever it was was coward enough to 'report' anonymously. SS wanted to examine my son all over (and I mean ALL over) and I can tell you it made me feel like s**t, even though we weren't guilty of anything.

Thanks Dawn. The best part of this is that the bloody social worker didn't even show up! I was stressing over this all day and she didn't bother to turn up. We phoned up 45 minutes after she was due, but her colleagues didn't know where she was and she never got into touch. We're leaving tomorrow (for Hungary) and I only started packing because of this around 4 pm. Also my husband took half a day off work and he's self employed, so he doesn't get paid for that. Thanks a bunch!
I still have loads to do until we leave tomorrow, but hopefully once we're there, we can start to relax.

Casual Colour is now up on the Debenhams site. Be sure to use the 10% off code DF69 which ends today. I got Weekend Getaway but was so tempted by Keep It Casual. I only had Allura's swatches to go by and my gut instincts. I liked Have A Lovely Day as I don't own many nudes but Temptalia said it was great for light to medium girls which is not me. Anyone going for any CC colours or all waiting for Heavenly Creatures?

I'm not getting anything from Mac this month. In fact I will try to not buy much at all this month, last month was a disaster, I spent twice the amount I was going to allow myself to spend a month. I will try to get the Guerlain bronzer in Duty Free and maybe pick up some things in Hungary that are not available here, but otherwise there's nothing else I actually want right now until HC. Maybe the gold Chanel powder and nail polish if I managed to get them from Selfridges.

I have just read that Boots are doing a special Jubilee points event - 10 points for every £1 spent (with a threshold of £50 online or £15 instore) between 1st and 5th June.
Wow, I've just got the Beth Ditto email from MAC. Not like them to be so quick with the emails!

Yes since Shop Mac I've bought quite a bit mainly lip products and yet my major hits have been from the perm line bar Red Racer, Runaway Red, Sail La Vie and Glorify. I haven't read up on Heavenly Creatures much as it's overwhelming but judging by Glorify I definitely want to get the eye products or one Skinfinish to use on the eye. I used Glorify on the eye and it was just this lovely understated copper tone. I missed all the good extra dimension shadows so this will make up for it. Roll on July!I'm not getting anything from Mac this month.

I ordered Out For Fun. Really liked the look of Keep it Casual and Weekend Getaway as well but I just stuck with the colour I was most drawn to initially, didn't want to risk not liking the other colours in person.
Finally ordered the new Chanel duo!
